Well I think I just figured out where our summer roadtrip needs to be this year....
—— Nothing, Arizona Location in the state of Arizona Coordinates: 34°28′47″N 113°20′7″W Country United States State Arizona County Mohave Settled 1977 Elevation 3,268 ft (996 m) Population (2008) • Total 0 GNIS feature ID 2675317 Nothing is an uninhabited ghost town in eastern Mohave County, Arizona, United States. History The locals told travelers it "got named by a bunch of drunks”. Nothing has frequently been noted on lists of unusual place names. The settlement was established in 1977 by Richard "Buddy" Kenworthy, located 100 miles (160 km) northwest of Phoenix, Arizona, and roughly 20 miles (32 km) south of Wikieup, the "rattlesnake capital of Arizona." It is west of Bagdad at milepost 148½ on U.S. Route 93 (the Joshua Forest Scenic Parkway) between Wickenburg and Kingman, on the route from Las Vegas to Phoenix. The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) installed one of four motorist call boxes on U.S. 93 at Nothing. The town sign reads: “Town of Nothing Arizona. Founded 1977. Elevation 3269ft. The staunch citizens of Nothing are full of Hope, Faith, and Believe in the work ethic. Thru-the-years-these dedicated people had faith in Nothing, hoped for Nothing, worked at Nothing, for Nothing” ” At its height, Nothing had a population of 4. The settlement contained a gas station and small convenience store. Nothing was abandoned by May 2005, and by August 2008, the gas station was beginning to collapse. An attempted revival of Nothing occurred at some time after August 2008 when Nothing was purchased by Mike Jensen. By April 2009, Jensen had opened his pizza business, run from a portable oven, with hopes of reopening the mini-mart and creating accommodations for RVs. As of April 2011, it appears that Nothing has once again been abandoned. The building has fresh boards in the windows, and no sign of inhabitance or any activity. In 2016, Century 21 real estate ran a "Give Dad Nothing" promotion where a free 24 hour lease to a piece of property at Nothing, Arizona could be secured for June 19, 2016 (Father's Day) only. The promotion was done with the participation of the current property owner and included a downloadable "Certificate of Nothing" and gift card. |

Lemme tellya a couple or three things, I had a blast yesterday watching NOTHING but both Wildcard Games. I felt bad for the young Buffalo Bills QB who was trying to make things happen at the end of the game when he was desperate. He is going to be great in the future. What a great game. He made some poor decisions but nobody is NOTHING but perfect.
We watched the second game with a great friend who has me rooting for The Patriots. I have a whole lot of friends from New England now and other than them talking funny they are such nice people who all miss shoveling snow! ![]() ![]() Staying up so late didn't seem rough until I tried my normal routine today and had to go back to the rack. I didn't go to bed until after 1 AM. I have mentioned it before and will do so again. It's so much better watching any sport without having a bet riding on it. Maybe a couple of bucks with my kids but that's it. It also nice to wake up just tired and not with your head spinning from drinking. Thank You God For That Relief So Far! ![]() We had given up totally on NFL Football for a few years for reasons anyone could guess. I don't want to Flog A Dead Animal. Glad we're back to watching though. It's the greatest. ![]() |
